The last of the larger cities in Sanpete County is Manti.  Manti is the county seat.  Brigham Young named the site "Manti" in the summer of 1850, at the request of the local patriarch Isaac Morley. The name was derived from that section of the "Book of Mormon" called Alma. Jesse W. Fox surveyed the plat for the "city" in the same summer, and Manti was incorporated in February 1851.  This is a picture of the Manti LDS temple.
